When workers with inadequate insurance coverage get hurt or sick off-the-job they may face devastating financial consequences. If the employee has medical coverage with large deductibles and co payments he may not be able to afford appropriate care. In addition many workers have no disability insurance coverage. The unaffordable medical bill arrives when no income is coming in.
The one-two combination can ruin a worker's finances for years. At the same time an on-the-job accident provides far more security.
Workers compensation insurance will provide payments for medical care, and a level of income replacement. This huge disparity in insurance protection can be tempting to otherwise honest workers in difficult circumstances.
